Am currently dividing my time between Queensland Community Flood Relief and keeping the Angel Arias on track. Please, if you are thinking of making a donation, bring in the things listed on the Facebook page, not general junk from your back room. It wastes the volunteers’ time sorting through half used bottles and empty flowerpots.

In booky news … pleased to say that Genre Flash #5 is available from this link: Genre Flash 5. This is a catalogue of many of the recent genre releases in Australia and is put together by Lindy Cameron. Half way through the document is my article on Writing Across Genres.

Also, a bit of fun for me this week (and you know how I love a bit of fun!). Thanks to Bruce Moyle and (Cool) Shite on the Tube, I’ll be going to the press day on the set of Iron Sky at Warner Brothers on the Gold Coast. I’ll be reporting back on the experience and the movie (which looks awesome – see trailer below) for both MDPWeb and Cool Shite.

My stars must in movie land this week because I also got an invite to the preview screening of producer, Joanne Weatherstone’s new short thriller, Peekaboo. Unfortunately this one’s in Sydney and I can’t get there. However, I’m going to some lengths to secure you insider info. Stand by for a feature on Joanne and a blog about the movie from a MDPWeb representative.

This is for me but read along if you feel like it.

In no particular order but before xmas I must:

1. write fore-ward for upcoming novella (not mine)

2. write article for Genre Flash

3. write article for Writing Queensland

4. write 12.5k of Angel Arias

5. begin short story for Suicide awareness antho

6. begin Parrish novelette for e-book publisher

7. write 3rd Ixion fairytale

8. revise SD screenplay after Lynne’s segment is complete

I’ll be back to cross things off as I go. Just not sure when I’ll fit in Christmas shopping or lunch.
